[The Great Satan]

I was just looking at goodnesswins' thread, The New United Nations, and I had a rather interesting thought. I've been wondering what the gambit is going to be to keep forward momentum going and avoid losing face as we string this out over summer and probably beyond. There has to be a game plan. I think I see a nifty possibility here. Bush could make the failure of the UN the immediate issue, and leverage the situation to replace it. This would make sense from so many different angles, it's not even funny. It would allow us to put Saddam on the back-burner (but still warming up) while we haggle over the ending of the UN and the establishment of the new "Liberty Alliance" -- we could kill a year on that without looking weak. It would allow us to kiss Kofi Annan goodbye -- and he, more than anyone outside of Iraq, is responsible for the current crisis in world security. We could blow off all the crap, all the losers, all the sadists and psychos on the world stage, and leave them to stew in their own muck. And then, sometime next year, when the realignment is complete and we have our defenses together, we could go in there and kick Saddam's ass. Look, I've only had a few minutes to think about this scenario, but wouldn't this just be classic George W. Bush?

I should have addressed the last post to you, too.

Bumping you on my earlier post. Basically, what I'm suggesting is that the next phase in the campaign will be the final Arafatization of the UN, and the assembly of a new "Liberty Alliance" to replace it. I have had some more time to think about it and I'm increasingly convinced that (a) this is what Bush is going to do and (b) it's an insanely great plan. There are so many angles to it, I don't know where to begin. To be continued...

What a delightful idea. I don't know how likely this is, but if Pres. Bush is looking for a bold step that would take us in the right direction, one that would at the same time strengthen our international position, explain yet another delay in the war, and bolster the support of his conservative base, that would do it.

If he did what you posted, I would be even more impressed with him!

I think that both are going to start happening very soon.

He has allowed the UN perverts to show their irrelevance and danger to the world. As you noted, "We could blow off all the crap, all the losers, all the sadists and psychos on the world stage, and leave them to stew in their own muck."

I don't think that he will wait to hammer Soddomite!

Fascinating idea. Could certainly work, for the better of all. Even give the leftists something to do with their time, as they love setting up bureaucracies. Yes, classic Dubya. We shall see...
